Daddy's Punkins'

Our very own little Punkin!!!




Isaac has a pumpkin patch and he and the kiddos picked 30 ripe pumpkins and sold them to the Co-Op in Notasulga!!! Way to go Dad, you are so much fun!!!

Super Hero and Soccer...
















...these are the two things I believe Braxton has enjoyed most this fall, besides the beach! He even wore his Super Hero cape to Soccer one night! Why not, right? His best buddy Whit Jackson had a super hero birthday and Braxton is hooked!! LOVE it!!!

(Sorry, don't know how to delete pictures!)
On Saturday of our big family week, my sister Aubrey got married!! So much fun, she was gorgeous and the setting was beautiful, couldn't have been better! We miss her already...it was definately one of those times I'll cherish forever!!

Beach Trip







So all of my family headed to Orange Beach, last week of September for a week of family fun! It was the best you could ask for...beautiful weather, great company, sweet kids, awesome grandparents, calm, shallow waters, nothing but time to enjoy, rejoice and relax! The pix say it all...didn't get any good pictures of the fam, just the kids!!

School turns sour...

So I got in my car to pick up the kiddos from the first day of pre-school and JB's teacher called me and said she was running a fever...What a great first day experience for Janie Belle...Needless to say, when I got to school she looked pitiful and was a little hot cake to the touch...Now Braxton has fever too...He did have a Great first day however, he was so happy when I picked him up...I said, "I'm so glad you were so big today and had such a fun time." He said, "I'm so glad too, that's because I have Jesus in my heart." I just grinned and laughed...I am so thankful for his new teacher Shea Ford, she must have made a sweet impression on him...Pray for my kiddos that fevers will go away soon!!

Back to School...

Everybody's excited!



She litterly ran into the building and then just stopped and wouldn't move...


"Oh, look, I already have friends..."
We are back in pre-school at FUMC Opelika...Mommy is so excited!! Braxton was oh, so big this year! Been there, done that kind of attitude but very, very excited because he's "bigger" this year and he's in the "big kid" room! So that means that Sissy is in the baby room, aka the two-year-olds! She talked it up big and was excited about her name on her back-pack but when it came time to walk in the room she stopped and wouldn't move...lot's of anxiety set in...I held her and took her in and played puzzles and showed her to her friends...She was ok, was crying when I left but I know she's having fun...I hope! Can't believe my baby is in pre-school...The past two years of her life just flash before my eyes...It really goes by in a blink...

Working on Fall Clothes...




I'm trying to get ahead, putting stuff together for the kiddos for the fall season! I'm not sure how busy I'll be, come August, so I figured I'd better go ahead and get some projects done...The pink outfit up top is my new favorite...I found the pink swirl in Birmingham and didn't really know what to do with it and then found the topper pattern at Wal-Mart and got started...Still baby looking but 2 pieces...The Auburn dress is more fun than most things I make, but I think it's cute...The long all is very traditional and it looks adorable on her, it went together a lot easier than it looks...Braxton is next, will post some of his ensembles soon!!

Quick trip to the Big City...




Braxton asked the boy, "Is this a Dinosaur?" We have a lot to learn...
(In case you can't tell, it's coral)


Look at my Dinosaur tooth!!


This was probably her favorite part of the museum...


We took the kiddos yesterday to Atlanta for a trip to the Fernbank Museum...Isaac's sister Anna and Her hubs and baby live there and we had a fun, fun visit...Braxton was very inquisitive and thoroughly enjoyed every exhibit we saw...They have dinosaurs there and lots of other interactive things to do...He kept wanting to see snakes, not sure why...he is scared of snakes...luckily for mom...there were no snakes! Thanks Anna for the picnic lunch...We very much enjoyed our trip!!

My New Adventure...





For those of you that may not know...My mother and I are starting our own sewing business...And I really cannot believe it...We are in the process of putting together our samples for trunk shows the first of August...I am truly excited...This is something I have been pondering and praying about for some time and It's finally a reality...I love childrens clothing and I especially love heirloom styles...I love the old made new and I love vintage, timeless fabrics...We will have over 20 samples at our show and will be sending out invites in a few weeks...What an adventure this is going to be...Here are a few samples, hope you like them...
